A stunning tribute to one of the most iconic Telecasters ever made, this 2023 Fender Custom Shop 1969 Rosewood Tele NOS is an expertly crafted recreation of the all-Rosewood guitars famously built for George Harrison. With its sleek natural gloss finish and rich tonal character, it blends vintage aesthetics with modern Custom Shop precision.
Built with a solid Indian rosewood body and matching rosewood neck and fingerboard, this Telecaster offers a unique tonal profile. Warm, articulate, and exceptionally resonant.
Equipped with hand-wound ‘67 Tele pickups, modern wiring (neck, neck + bridge & bridge), and period-correct hardware, it delivers all the chime, twang, and snap you’d expect from a great Tele, but with added depth from the rosewood construction.
Original paperwork, HSC and case candy are included/ Original steel saddles in case, Glendale compensated steel saddles are currently installed.
Excellent overall condition, with only one extremely small ding on the back near the bass-side strap button (see photos). Otherwise pristine and well cared for.
